I cannot give you advice concerning your father. In general, however, medications such as Stemetil are often monitored with regular blood work done in a laboratory. The physician will check the patient’s blood for toxic levels of medications to avoid tardive dyskinesia, which is a movement disorder.

Your concern for your father is commendable.
